Market Position15/20
Demand Defensibility6/15
Operational Efficiency0/15
Entry Multiple: 8.0x – 10.0x
Est. MOIC: 1.9x
Risk Factors:
- Negative operating margin
- Low occupancy (<30%) — demand risk
Catalysts:
- RCM optimization could add 3-5pp margin
- Strong commercial payer base protects revenue
- Limited competition supports pricing power
- Volume growth opportunity from low occupancy
Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-13.9%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -3.7%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-42.2%, 14.4%]. P29 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 302139.650 | -0.1783 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 313286.456 | +0.1656 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.072 | +0.0374 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.098 | -0.0304 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.085 | -0.0292 | Lower State Peer Margin decreases predicted margin |
